Advantages: easy to use, clean, and maintain
Disadvantages: none yet
This is a very nice looking slow cooker to have and use for a stew and other things. The food turns out really nice and soft and it is so good too. It cooks it very slowly tomake it taste alot better than when you place it inside an oven to cook it. It is really easy to use and it does not take too long for it to heat up at all. It has some different cooking features as well. To where you can cook it on slow o high for it to get done. It does not ...

Review of West Bend 84716 by
jabbusch-girl
Advantages: easy, simple, and comes in handy
Disadvantages: nothing
This slow cooker is a good value for the money. The food that my friend cooks in it is so delicious and moist and tender. You can cook it on different degrees as well so you do not end up burning it. It does not take that long for some of the food to cook. She uses hers for roast and other thing to cook all night or over night. It is easy to clean when washing.It is very easy to use. She starts the food at night at times if she has too much to do ...

This one is underpriced!
Review of Rival SCVC604-SS by
DebiEstes
Advantages: Everything about this machine is superior.
Disadvantages: It doesn't prepare the meal for you.
I hate to say this but I think this crockpot should cost more. It is WONDERFUL. It looks very expensive in its stanless steel and digital design. The cooking pot on the inside can be lifted out and put in dishwaher which is so awesome. The little chime that it makes is so cute. We use ours like at least once a week and have had it for at least a year now and have had absolutely no problems at all on it.The handles stay nice and cool in case you want ...

Good crock pot, some issues
Review of Rival 38501-W by
rprmsr
Advantages: good size and easy clean-up
Disadvantages: settings
Over-all this is a good crock-pot. It has a good size to it and fits a medium size roast with vegetables real well. I also like the fact that you can remove the stoneware pot and it cleans well in the dishwasher. I would recommend that you get the carrying bag to store it in and for transporting it. It is a little difficult to transport liquidy foods without it spilling. I have seen a rubberband that is made specifically for this crockpot that will ... ...worst parts about it is, if your food finishes cooking before the timer is up you can't put it on keep warm. In order to do any cooking you have to select a time, 4, 6, 8 or 10 hours. It does heat well and cook evenly. Over-all it is a good crock-pot and I would recommend it to anyone, but warn them of these cons. ...

Slow cooker. esential to the kitchen
Review of Rival 64451LD-C by
jtbull46
Advantages: dont have to fuss with it, ez to clean, removeable pot
Disadvantages: none really kind of pricey
...are entertaining friends.
This Rival is pretty cool and replaced another rival brand pot we got when me and the boss ( aka wife) got married. This was incidently an anniversary present. It has sturdy stainless steel contruction and has a removeable stone type cooking area inside that you can remove. I pop mine right in the dishwasher with the lid to clean it. There are three heating levels you have low, high and then a warm. I personally have not ... ...just me.
Some things that make it so useful is that you can cook meals in it like roast beef. We cook a roast in it, spices set it for like 8 hours on high for at least six hours and we have a good meal. The leftover roast can make great BBQ beef sandwiches that I use a smaller slow cooker for. You also can cook things like chicken parts or ribs before throwing the on the grill to give them that finishing touch. You can make your pasta sauces in ...
